ELSA ON TV!!

Friday 10 March 2006:

Thanks to my home university, I got the contact information of a French channel on the cable. They were looking for french people living abroad.
What?? an opportunity to be on TV, I seize it right away...
Since it's a live TV show broadcast at 12pm in France, I have to be up at 5am central time...( I know...well celebrity has a cost...).
The technical staff calls me (and wakes me up at 4am) "oh , hi, did I wake you up, Elsa?" - "No, no don't worry" (yeah right..lol).
So after my 5 minutes phone call to fix the mic, here I am waiting and sooo tired.
Well it's not like I didn't have a midterm in few hours (!!!). I kinda get dressed ...hahaha I know it's 430, but I can be tired but not sloppy!!
Here it is, I'm online with the host and of course my webcam which ALWAYS works for my mum decided not to that day...arrgghh. But professional as I am, I manage to answer the questions while struggling with my stupid webcam.
Finally, the machine loses against the human being!! France can see me. Well it's not like if it was the most popular show ever.
I say France but I mean my mum, my grand-ma and a bunch of friends hahaha . I think that da, the show had its biggest audience ever lol!
The host asks me interesting questions illustrated with some of my pics. It deals with Katrina, the American mentality, sport, my trips...
I'm happily surprised that I don't speak frenglish .....
The interview goes very fast. I wish I could say waaayy much more about my life here, but the TV laws are unbreakable...
I say goodbye (I know i know i haven't greet aaaallll my friends:)) and promise
to send them my Florida pics.
After a few phone calls from my mum and a friend, I finally reach my bed but i'm not that tired and the sun is already up!
